Make the domain a relay domain on the gateway server and use the
transport table to selectively route users to different servers. Don't
forget to implement recipient validation via relay_recipient_maps.

http://www.postfix.org/postconf.5.html#transport_maps
http://www.postfix.org/transport.5.html
http://www.postfix.org/ldap_table.5.html

An alternative is to use virtual aliasing to rewrite each recipient
address to the name of the server that hosts that user.

More information is needed to diagnose the error. DEBUG_README
contains instructions on how to provide good error reports.
